Intro:
Em C


Em              	C
Staring at the sidewalk, there's a crack in which a flower grows
G			B7
reminded me of somebody not hangin' around  here anymore
Em		        C
and everything is so pretty/pretty fucked up, obviously
G			       B7
when you call me from the other side to tell me everything is fine
Em		         C
and I will always love even when your eyes are fading
G		                            B7
and if they catch you, I will save you, I will get you out



Em	               C
And this, what about this?
G		    B7
is it anything at all, is it a growing cancer in your heart
Em 		       C
and this life...I don't have a clue
G			    B7
but when they told you not to worry, didn't it bother you?
Am	            D			      G
well all that's very nice but this is still a song against life

Bridge:
E Ab (3x)
A C


Em
Where do all these people come from, 
C
where do all these words belong?
G		       B7
a never-ending bible, everything they say is our command
Em			C
and everybody wants the same, everybody here wants nothing,
G		         B7
grow up to be a millionaire is all there is

Em	               C
and this, what about this?
G		   B7
is it anything at all is it a growing cancer in our hearts?
Em		       C
and this life...I don't have a clue
G			        B7
but when they told me not to look back, sure it bothered me as hell
Am	    D		            G
all that's very nice, but this is a song against life

Em		           C
He goes out in the kitchen, he goes there every second
                  G
and your plastic father said:
	   B7
"it's just too boring standing here all day"
Em
and went out for a lover
         C
or a new world to discover
	G			B7
and the watertower threw its shadow over your house
Em	               C	          G
and this, what about this? is it anything at all?
            B7
is it a growing cancer in your heart?
Em		       C
and this life...I don't have a clue
	      G			B7
but when they told you not to worry, didn't it bother you?
Am		D
well all that's very nice
		G	
but this is a song against life
